Luigi’s Mansion Had a SECRET 2-Player Mode?!

Did you know Luigi’s Mansion actually has an unused two-player mode hidden in its code? 😱 With cheat codes, players can re-enable it — but it’s extremely buggy. The second character frequently gets stuck in doors, and ghosts they capture don’t even count toward clearing rooms. Even stranger? Dataminers found an unused Mario model wearing Poltergust straps, suggesting Mario may have been planned as Player 2. However, he’s stretched to Luigi’s proportions, hinting he might’ve just been a placeholder rather than a finished concept. The idea didn’t die there, though. Years later, Nintendo fully realized co-op in Luigi’s Mansion — this time starring Gooigi instead of Mario. One scrapped idea… Perfected years later. 👉 Love cut content, Nintendo mysteries, and beta features hidden in classic games?
